Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Used to flinch at my name
Every word you threw felt sharp
Learned to read your mood like weather
Walking on glass in the dark
You said I was “too much”
Then said I was never enough
Twisted my heart in a knot
Called control and chaos “love”
I learned to shrink my laugh
Hide my questions in my sleeve
Kept my truth under the mattress
Just to keep you pleased
But fear gets heavy
And silence cuts deep
One day the mask slipped
I heard my own voice speak
[Chorus]
I’m on my way back to me
Step by step, I’m breaking free
All of these scars, they’re part of my story
I’m done hiding, I stand in my glory
I’m on my way back to me
Learning to stay, not just to flee
Look in the mirror, say “I am enough”
This is my way, my self-accepting love
[Verse 2]
Therapist asking me questions
I don’t know where to start
How do you measure the damage
Of doubting your own heart?
I had to unlearn the poison
Every echo calling me weak
Now I talk to that younger version
Say, “You were brave to speak”
I set boundaries like borders
You can’t stampede through my peace
If your words come dipped in venom
That conversation’s ceased
I got friends who hold me honest
Family I chose myself
We toast to tiny victories
Like choosing my mental health
[Chorus]
I’m on my way back to me
Step by step, I’m breaking free
All of these scars, they’re part of my story
I’m done hiding, I stand in my glory
I’m on my way back to me
Learning to stay, not just to flee
Look in the mirror, say “I am enough”
This is my way, my self-accepting love
[Bridge]
I forgive who I was
Staying small to survive
I forgive who you were
But you can’t rent space in my mind
I’m not your insult, not your fear
Not your shadow, not your tears
I’m the hand that pulled me up
I’m the voice that kept me here (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m on my way back to me
Step by step, I’m breaking free
All of these scars, they’re part of my story
I’m done hiding, I stand in my glory
I’m on my way back to me
Learning to stay, not just to flee
Look in the mirror, say “I am enough”
This is my way, my self-accepting love

Verses sit close and intimate with male vocals, almost confessional; chorus opens wider with stacked harmonies and a simple chant.
